SE's most difinitive statement yet on parsers

[Sebazy]

SMN's rotation is simple as well especially when you have "fester" that states it does more damage with more dots. So your rotation becomes dot management. As for pets, I mean come on it's obvious that Garuda offers support and with the range attack it doesn't need to move.

Which tooltip notes that Miasma II is a DPS loss on a single target, unless you are about to contagion in which case it's a gain?

I'm also not sure which tooltip explains that Shadowflare is also a DPS loss on a single target unless you have swift cast going spare, again, more DPS.

I'm also confused as to what in game help or description covers the merits of burning rouse/spur on cooldown as opposed to saving them for pet cooldowns.

The game also makes zero mention of Ruin II's merits and when it's worth using over ruin 1 despite the high MP cost.

Lets be honest now, the game doesn't even explain that Summoners shouldn't really have Titan out in dungeons, let alone any of the little DPS details that make such a big difference. A SMN that doesn't know these details and more will not be able to make progress in Savage Coil (Or much of regular coil2 frankly). The only way to know these details is via direct or indirect parsing.

Yet people that use parsers for damage never set an avg threshold that's okay to go by instead all they look at is their Max DPS value and complain when someone's not up to their max dps standard.

There you go with those sweeping generalisations again!

In which we have this addict level of "I can't live without it" that has produced such a state of mind in these people that you can no longer reason with. Since you constantly see them constantly drag it back to the same vicious cycle that consist of insults and belittlement.

Please quote any example of me using insults and belittlement to further my side of this debate.

I'll be waiting.

Ps still waiting <3
